Is Jo tempted?

She's gone off the twin headlights, likes the black bonnet idea. but still definate no to lowering--- Looked at the master cylinder today its an ate one . damn!

cant lower it, look at the reg , its a F(a)RM car so belongs in a field with chunky tyres and 4 wheel drive. i have some old land rover wheels that might lok good, and a nudge bar.

Just had to dig this thread out for another reason and thought I'd update it.
Rear panel now straightened out ,was quite badly mishapen that did not really notice under the bathroom sealer and filler.
Rear valence was so bad I cut the worst out and frenched the plate into it. Jo welded up all the badge holes and I found a pair of blue dots in a box at home.
Then tied a genuine reindeer bell to the tow eye ( a wedding momento)

Osr wheel arch lip was very crusty, so a new one was let in. Still a bit to do in this pic.

Badly dented drivers door , looked as if it had been folded onto the wing , was straightened out.
Then the front was sanded of to straight solid paint. And Jo welded up more badge holes.


All that is left before a coat of paint is added is to repair the n/s front door (or find a better one ).

And straighten the roof.
This is how he looks at the moment 80% in satin pastel grey.
Only other part Jo wants for it is a sportshatch front spoiler, so if you have one in the shed etc let me know.

hmmm looks kool mite be interested in this ;

As soon as we have a new car I'll put it in the for sale section.
Can't fault its reliabilty , currently doing 400 miles a week without any grief.
